	Clifords War and AEP $13.95 ISBN 1-932196-32-3 Youth & adults Cliford’s War and A.E.P. (alternative educational placement) is a book that allows the uninitiated and unsuspecting a glimpse of what, prior to now, only teachers, administrators, paraprofessionals and students in many of the inner-city, public schools of America must deal with on a daily basis. It is one school system’s attempt to provide help for students who are disruptive to the educational process to the extent that the other students in their classes are deprived of a quality education. Additionally, it provides an opportunity for boys and girls who are disruptive and those who think it’s cool to be disruptive, a chance to examine, objectively, just how ugly this disorderliness is and how damaging it can be to themselves and to the other students in their classes. © 2007 Dr. Joyce W.

	Its OK to Be Different $7.99 ISBN 1-57502-238-9 Youth & adults It’s O.K. to Be Different Zebie, a newborn zebra, is born with no stripes. Because Zebras are born with and identified by their stripes, as Zebie grows, he is unhappy about his stripelessness. Compounding this unhappiness, his playmates, Zill and Zim, tease him about his stripelessness. Zebie's mother, Zue, and his grandmother, Zulia, have taught Zebie to ignore taunts about his stripelessness. They have taught him that It's O.K. To Be Different. They have told him that no two zebras are exactly alike, that they all have similarities and they all have differences. Zebie usually feels better after these conversations with his mother and grandmother. Through conversations with Zim, one of Zebie's playmates, Zebie learns that royal zebras, King Zavid and Queen Zuth, are bringing their daughter, Princess Zula, to Zee Land. They are bringing her to Zee Land to choose a prince to wed. Zebie asks his grandmother and learns more about the approaching royal visit.

	Sister Its Not Okay $10.00 ISBN 0-9660215-1-7 Adult non-fiction Sister, It’s Not Okay Sister, there’s a lot of things in this world over which we have absolutely no control: what the weather will be like tomorrow, if an expected child will be male or female, if our jobs will be phased out; will the company downsize? In fact, I could fill this page, and probably a few others, with events which are absolutely beyond our control, and which are not okay, even though we may be negatively impacted by them. But there are some things in our lives over which we are able to exert a good deal of control. In the book, I will discuss just ten of these things that are not okay. No doubt I could fill this page, and quite a few others, with events over which we do have a measure of control that are not okay, but I consider the following ten The Top Ten. No doubt you can think of others which you would include in the top ten, but please consider the following Top Ten very seriously. Sister, it’s not okay to: (1) Have babies out of wedlock (2) Raise your grandchildren while your own, adult children party (live irresponsibly) (3) Keep able-bodied, adult children in your home, support and/or enable them (4) Keep and support a man (5) Support your child in a wrong (6) Talk negatively to your child about his absent father (7) Expect and/or allow someone else to raise your child (8) Let a man to whom you are not married spend the night in your home in your bed (especially with your child’s awareness) (9) Make your older child responsible for a younger brother and/or sister (10) Make welfare a way of life. © 2007 Dr. Joyce W.

	The Point System $8.95 ISBN 1-56763-399-4 Youth & adults The Point System Josephine Chappell (Josie) tells the story of her first year in middle school. Josie had loved her elementary school. To her, it was another home away from home. But middle school is a whole, new world. She doesn’t already know most of the kids. She no longer takes all of her subjects from one teacher. She is no longer sure of what is expected of her or of how she is supposed to act and react. She no longer feels sure of herself. Adding to feelings of insecurity at school, Josie has a new baby brother at home who still has to get used to things. Manuel (who is called Man by everyone in the family) wakes the entire household up early on Saturday mornings. Man gets a lot of the attention at home that used to be Josie’s sole domain before he made his appearance. Josie no longer feels special at school, and she’s beginning to doubt the specialness that she always took for granted at home. But the story is more than Josie’s. It’s the story of thousands of boys and girls throughout the United States who leave the comfortable niches of their elementary schools each year to begin the journey into adolescence. It’s the story of new beginnings and new experiences, both symbolically and literally. The Point System, seen through Josie’s eyes and experiences, is at times poignant, at times funny, and at times revealing. It’s a “must read” for every fifth and sixth grade child and for the parents of these children. It will delight and entertain, but most of all it will inform. It will shed new light on the challenges faced by children beginning this phase of their lives and will, hopefully, make parents more aware of the need to help them face these challenges! © 2007 Dr. Joyce W. Teal

	The Yield Book 1 $11.99 ISBN 0-9660215-3-3 Adult, non-fiction The Yield (Book I) The Rest of the Story (Book II) is about black male/female relationships and the people involved in those relationships. It is about joy and heartbreak. It allows numerous glimpses into the private lives of the courageous people who were willing to share their stories with the author. The Yield is written in two parts, Book I and Book II. Book I sets forth the initial scenario; Book II details the corresponding resolution of each of the initial scenarios introduced in Book I. It is a nonfiction writing though names and places have been fictionalized to protect the privacy of the real people to whom the stories belong. These people have suffered intense pain; many of them are still hurting. For their pain, for their bravery, for their willingness to share their private lives, it is the author’s hope, as well as the hope of the women who have shared their stories, that many others will be able to avoid the pitfalls and ensuing devastation. There are two ways to read the book: the traditional way from beginning to end, following the sequence of pages in numerical order, or you may prefer to move between the scenarios, reading the initial scenario in Book I and then its corresponding resolution in Book II. However you prefer please read it. You won’t be disappointed! © 2007 Dr. Joyce W. Teal

	Just Do It, Kid $9.95 ISBN 1-58501-116-9 Just Do It, Kid, the third volume in the Don’t Sweat It, Kid Series, completes the set. Like Volume 1 and Volume 2 in the series, Volume 3 can potentially point youth in a new and more positive direction. Also, like the previous two books, it has been written especially for youth who are entering or passing through their adolescent years. From this phase of life, youth will emerge as adults. Each of the other life phases – infancy, toddler, young child and adolescence -- are all temporary phases. The next and final phase, adulthood, is permanent. And the adult that each young person will become will be shaped by the child he or she was. For them to become adults of character, the kind of adults they currently admire, there are some things that they will have to be willing to do, and there are some things that they will have to refuse to do. Adolescents' belief systems and many of their life-long habits are already in place. Because this is so, how they experience and deal with the successes and failures in their lives, and how they act and react to the frustrations and disappointments they encounter as an inevitable part of the living experience, will mold them into the adults they become. This is why it is so important that young people get a grip on the reality that they do not have to sweat the small stuff, and as has already been said, most of it is small stuff.
